The town of Spokane Falls, Washington Territory, has just burned down.

There were forty blocks burned. The loss is estimated at fifteen million dollars. It is the worst hot and dry weather that I have ever seen. Tho dust in the road is from three to six inches deep, but no wind, so it is not dusty. Fruit and veg etables aro plentiful and of fino qunlity.
